Thanx for the quick reply. Got that, but I still haven't solved my problem
though.

Is there any way to group the packet flow without sacrificing the L2 lookup? I think that the flows to multiple ports (i.e. ovs-ofctl add-flow br0
in_port=3,actions=output:1,2)
skip this lookup.

If you're outputting to particular ports then what would L2 learning
do? It determines the output ports but you've already specified them.

If I set a flow from port 1 to 2 and 3 then the packet will go to both destinations, something
like a hub, but I want something smarter than that.

You can match on some fields and then do learning for only a set of
flows by outputting to the NORMAL action.  I'm not sure that achieves
what you are looking for though.

This could be achieved by multiple actions on an flow rule or by resubmitting the packet?
